Chelsea midfielder, Lesley Ugochukwu, has left Enzo Maresca’s side to join Premier League side Southampton on a season-long loan.
The Blues disclosed this in a statement last night ahead of their Premier League opener with Manchester City on Sunday.
“We look forward to monitoring and supporting Lesley’s development throughout his loan at St Mary’s. Good luck, Lesley,” Chelsea’s statement partly read.
Ugochukwu joined Chelsea last summer from Rennes.
He featured on 15 occasions during his debut campaign at Stamford Bridge.
The France Under-21 international was part of the first-team squad under Maresca for Chelsea’s pre-season summer tour of the USA.
The 20-year-old scored against Wrexham and Inter Milan, respectively.
